The expansion of clinical laboratory automation has been accelerated by the introduction of electronics, robotics, and extremely refined technical approaches. One of the biggest advancements in diagnostic laboratory sciences in recent times is automation. The goal of laboratory automation, which started in the 1950s and has advanced over the years, is to speed up turnaround times for testing in the lab and eliminate human error. Automation has decreased overall errors and allowed laboratory staff to devote more time and energy to quality assurance by eliminating the tedious and repetitive manual processes used in laboratory testing.
Expanding on this and more is Eun Hee Lee, President of GC labs as she tells us about how South Korea's leading clinical laboratory conducts over 92 million tests every year with 24/7 operations and a state-of-the-art total laboratory automation (TLA) system.
GC labs is also displaying its cutting-edge solutions at the 22nd Medlab Middle East exhibition in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Lee discussed the lab's testing excellence, which has been recognised for its high level of precision and accuracy on a global scale by earning certification in the Vitamin D Standardization Certification Program (VDSCP) and Hormone Standardization Program for the first time in Korea (HoSt).
